The Redefiners - 2014 - Chapter 2: Creating Luck

The Redefiners are a hip hop duo from Chicago consisting of ATM and
Mentality. Chapter 2: Creating Luck is their new mixtape. Both ATM and
Mentality have fast flows and they can trade verses back and forth with
no problems, each has their own unique style but their voices are also
similar enough for the album to feel cohesive. Production by Relta,
Derrick Thomas, Arturizzy, Gin Jacket, NB, 6ix, CmR, Da Vinci, Omito,
All Stars, Da and Soul and guest verses from SwizZz, Cam Meeskins,
Taylor Bennet and KiDD The Chicagoan.

They cite artists
like De La Soul. Tribe Called Quest, Big Pun & Kendrick Lamar.
Stylisticily and production wise this album doesn't stray very far from a
flow focused, almost gangster hard type beat but The Redefiners tend to
stay away from the gun play seeming to prefer a more conscious,
positive vibe. Highlights include Blue Dream, Absurd, Mind In The Clouds, The Heavenly Three Ft. Cam Meekins, Candy Shoppa, Lingo Ft. KiDD The Chicagoan, October's Diary, Take Flight and Spit Flow. If you like hip hop or
rap, The Redefiners' Chapter 2: Creating Luck will serve well.
